Trinidad-based Republic Bank Ltd on Monday inaugurated its first trade mission in Guyana in hopes of developing new corporate relationships and opening markets across the region.

Speaking at the opening for the two-day mission at the Marriott Hotel, Executive Director of the Bank Roopnarine Oumade Singh stated that its goal is to facilitate a meeting for the bank’s corporate and commercial customers across all jurisdictions to establish beneficial relationships, foster multilateral trade, open up new markets and to create additional revenue generating avenues.

Referencing the full conference room at the hotel, which saw delegates from Guyana, Suriname, Trinidad and Tobago and Barbados, Singh said that when the bank was planning the event, it had not anticipated that the turnout would have been so grand. “I am very pleased with the outcome and am very confident that a lot of business is going to be generated from the interactions that will continue for the couple days and for months and years as we go forward in building our business,” Singh said.
